Executive Summary

Minimum Service Standards (MSS) for hospitals is the service readiness and availability of tool for optimal requirement of the hospitals to provide minimum services that are expected from them. This tool entails for preparation of service provision and elements of service utilization that are deterministic towards functionality of hospital to enable working environment for providers and provide resources for quality health service provision. MSS for hospitals reflect the optimally needed minimum criteria for services to be provide but in itself is not an “ideal” list of the maximum standards. This checklist of MSS is different than a program specific quality improvement tool as it will outline the equipment, supplies, furniture, human resource required for carrying out service but not detail out the standards operating procedures of any service.

The results of Nepal Health Facility Survey 2015 showed that among the health facilities that were assessed only 13 percent of them had all seven basic equipment items- adult weighing scale, child weighing scale, infant weighing scale, thermometer, stethoscope, blood pressure apparatus and a light source for service provision. The availability of all supplies and equipments defined for standard precaution control was as low as 0.2%, all basic laboratory services in 12% and only 3% facilities had client feedback mechanism in place. This was an alarming situation. During that period, minimum service standards was rolled out in 83 district level hospitals and was evident to contribute in quality of services provided by hospitals with instances of improved governance, management, clinical and support services. This encouraged MoHP to put on its efforts on setting the minimum service standards for hospitals secondary and tertiary levels and at the same time contextual revision of MSS for district hospitals to set MSS for primary level hospitals. The revision and development of the tool took into series of steps beginning with formulation of Technical Working Group and selection of subject experts and technical coordinator and consultative workshops and meetings (Figure: Process of MSS revision and development). The key guiding documents are Constitution of Nepal 2072, National Health Policy 2014, Policy on Quality Assurance in Health Care Services, 2064, Public Health Service Act 2075, Nepal Integrated Health Infrastructure Development Standards 2073/74, Nepal Health Sector Strategy 2015-2020 and Guideline on Health Institution Establishment, Operation and Upgrading Standards, 2070 but not limited to them.

Figure Process of Revision and Development of Minimum Service Standards for Hospitals

Thus prepared MSS is a comprehensive tool for optimal preparation of the hospitals for the minimum services that are needed to be provided by these health facilities and has potential to bring a positive change. The health sector needs are dynamic and revision of the services and standards in due course is anticipated. The revision of MSS for hospitals is planned to be done every 2-3 years (completion of cycle of MSS in all targeted government hospitals) to incorporate the learning and adapt the documents to the emerging context.

The MSS tool has been organized in three major sections: Governance and Management, Clinical Service Management and Hospital Support Service Management. It has been prepared in the form of checklist that thrives for the preparedness and utilization that are fundamental to establish services towards quality. For secondary hospitals, there are 1063 set of standards with total score of 1343, out of which- 104 standards for measuring governance and management and has weightage of 20%, 819 standards for measuring clinical service management and has weightage of 60%, and 138 standards for measuring support service management and has weightage of 20%. Governance and management section includes the minimum standards for six subsections, clinical service management has twenty one sub sections and hospital support service management has eleven subsections.

ix

After assessment of all the sections of the standards, for overall scoring, each section is then weighed. The section of the governance and management (Section I) is weighed in 20%, that of clinical service management (Section II) is weighed in 60% and that of hospital support service management (Section III) is weighed in 20%. The sum of these weighed percentage of the subsections give the overall MSS score of the hospitals and based on it color code will be provided. This MSS Score for hospitals measure the existing situation and enables to identify the gap areas that are to be addressed through the development of the actions plan that demands both technical and financial inputs and managerial commitments. The overall process is guided by its implementation guideline that describes on sequences of self-assessment and follow up workshops and gap identification for action plan development and striving for optimal MSS Score.

Ministry of Health and Population strives to implement MSS in hospitals for establishing enabling environment at service delivery point through preparedness and availability for quality service provision to the users. Not being an exhaustive list of facilities and services, hospitals are encouraged to strive for betterment and go beyond the defined set of minimum standards whenever their resources support.

Background IntroductionMinimum Service Standards (MSS) for hospitals is the service readiness and availability of tool for optimal requirement of the hospitals to provide minimum services that are expected from them. This tool entails for preparation of service provision and elements of service utilization that are deterministic towards functionality of hospital to enable working environment for providers and provide resources for quality health service provision. MSS for hospitals reflect the optimally needed minimum criteria for services to be provide but in itself is not an “ideal” list of the maximum standards. This checklist of MSS is different than a program specific quality improvement tool as it will outline the equipment, supplies, furniture, human resource required for carrying out service but not detail out the standards operating procedures of any service.

The results of Nepal Health Facility Survey 2015 showed that among the health facilities that were assessed only 13 percent of them had all seven basic equipment items- adult weighing scale, child weighing scale, infant weighing scale, thermometer, stethoscope, blood pressure apparatus and a light source for service provision. The inception of minimum service standards started with the realization to improve the curative services in rural hospitals with focus on hospital management. It began as piloting in 4-hospital in 2013 in partnership with Nick Simons Institute to support district hospital for assessment of minimum service standards using “MSS Checklist to Identify the Gaps in Quality Improvement of District Hospitals”. This has been rolled out successfully nationwide in 83 district level hospitals.

The availability of all supplies and equipments defined for standard precaution control was as low as 0.2%, all basic laboratory services in 12% and only 3% facilities had client feedback mechanism in place. This was an alarming situation. During that period, minimum service standards was rolled out in 83 district level hospitals and was evident to contribute in quality of services provided by hospitals with instances of improved governance, management, clinical and support services. This encouraged MoHP to put on its efforts on minimum service standards for hospitals.

Following the learning from the implementation of MSS and considering the current Federal context, MoHP has updated MSS for the district hospitals to make it applicable to Primary Hospitals. At the same time, MoHP has also developed the MSS for secondary and tertiary hospitals in line with the intervention planned in the NHSS-Implementation plan (2016-2021).

In developing the Minimum Service Standards for hospitals, following documents were key references:

Besides these, literature related to health facility readiness and availability, and quality of care were visited by the consultant, technical coordinator, subject experts and TWG members and contextual reality were given priority during the development of the MSS tools.The Minimum Service Standards have been defined considering the existing organizational structure of the hospitals, provision of human resources and financing capacity. The defined standards basically focus on the readiness of hospitals towards ensuring the delivery of quality health services. However, hospitals are encouraged to strive for betterment and go beyond the defined set of minimum standards whenever their resources support. The health sector needs are dynamic and revision of the services and standards in due course is anticipated. The revision of MSS for hospitals is planned to be done every 2-3 years (completion of cycle of MSS in all targeted government hospitals) to incorporate the learning and adapt the documents to the emerging context.

Process of Minimum Service Standards Development

Formation of Technical Working Group (TWG)

A Technical Working Group was formed by MoHP to develop the Minimum Service Standards (MSS) for Hospitals with involvement of the then curative service division, related sections and departments and experts from the external development partners.

The TWG comprised of the following members as per previous MOHP structure and the members continued till finalization of the document:

• Chief, The then Curative Service Division, MoHP- Coordinator

• Chief, Public Health Administration, The then Monitoring and Evaluation Division, MoHP- Member

• Medical Generalist, MoHP- Member

• Executive Director, Health Insurance Board- Member

• Chief, The then Nursing Section, MoHP- Member

• Under Secretary, The then Curative Service Division, MoHP- Member

• Chief, The then Quality Section of Management Division- Member

• Representative, World Health Organization, Nepal- Member

• Representative, DFID/Nepal Health Sector Support Program- Member

• Representative, Nick Simons Institute- Member

• Section Chief, The then Curative Service Division, MoHP- Member Secretary

Identification of subject experts and technical coordinator

As per the agreement of the TWG members and the learning from MSS implementation in district hospitals, it was agreed to divide the MSS into three sections namely; Governance and Management, Clinical Service Management and Hospital Support Service Management. With series of meetings among the TWG members, subject experts (Annex I- List of Subject Experts) were identified for consultation in specific sections of the service standards under the leadership of the then Curative Service Division. They also developed term of reference for technical coordinator who would be a liaison among MoHP, partners and subject experts for the persecution of the task.

Desk review and template development

Technical coordinator (TC) for the work supported TWG for the development of the templates for revision of the minimum service standards for primary, secondary and tertiary hospitals with desk review of the key guiding documents (as listed in background) and service availability and readiness tool of World Health Organization (WHO). Thus developed templates were shared with the subject experts. All the subject experts were coordinated by TC for preparing the zero draft of the MSS and TWG moved on to the next step of consultative workshops.

Series of coordination meeting between MoHP, TWG and supporting partners

Series of coordination meeting were conducted by MoHP for the discussion of action points with TWG members and supporting partners for MSS. Being based on identified need the consultative workshops, their modality and participants were finalized.

Orientation and consultative workshop

For orientation and consultative workshop, participants were subject experts and consultant doctors, government officials from department, sections and divisions of MoHP, representatives from various academic institutions, different regional, zonal and district level hospitals and partner agencies. There were around 62 participants in the workshop addressed by Health Secretary, MoHP. Subject experts from tertiary center, regional, zonal and district hospitals of the country shared their valuable experience of understating and working for minimum service standards while being part of the district level hospitals during their service. From the workshop, revision of MSS for primary level and development of MSS for secondary and tertiary hospitals was guided to be service oriented leading to a comprehensive practical tool for institutionalizing readiness and

5

service availability in the hospitals. Technical coordinator shared the draft one with the TWG team and critical areas for intensive work out identified were- intensive care units, anesthesia, emergency and public health perspective. Being based on the critical areas identified, modality for further steps was contextualized and Review Workshop I was planned with experts for working in identified critical areas.

Draft review and finalization workshop

For review and finalization workshop, there were around 25 participants including members of TWG, government officials from the then Curative Service Division, Management Division, subject experts on intensive care, anesthesia and emergency services from academic institutions, professional bodies and hospitals, and experts from partner agencies. The inputs from the workshop on was on format of tool to arrange the supporting annex immediately followed by standards and sequence of the annexes used along with standards to be uniformly allocated as furniture, equipment, instrument and supplies for making it user friendly. The technical inputs were received in all three thematic areas with special inputs on intensive care, anesthesia and emergency services; also contextualization of the ratio of health workforce for services was done during the workshop. The feedback were incorporated by TC to develop draft second of the MSS. Technical coordinator shared the draft second with the TWG team and draft sharing review workshop II with the professional councils and associations, representatives from central level hospital was planned.

Draft sharing and review workshop

For draft sharing and review workshop, there were around 35 participants who were representatives from Nepal Medical Council, Nepal Nursing Council, executives from central level hospitals, representatives from Nepal Medical Association, Nepal Nursing Association and Society of Public Health Physician Nepal. It was identified during the workshop that there is requirement of division of the clinical service components of primary hospitals at least into two sections of less than 50 beds and 50 beds to 100 beds for the ease of the relevancy of the services available. Also final format for the tool was decided to be addressing- area, its component, verification having the service standards. Being based on the inputs from workshop, separate MSS for primary hospitals with general service and primary hospitals with specialized services were drafted. And additional consultation was done with identified nephrologist, neurologist, gastrologist and burn/plastic surgeon for additional services in tertiary hospitals who were consulted by TC for technical inputs and thus draft third of the MSS was prepared. Closed group workshop with MSS implementers for proof reading and appraisal of practical aspects of the MSS was planned.

Closed group workshop with MSS Implementers

For closed group workshop with MSS implementers, participants were members of TWG, team of implementers working as district health support program officers of partner organization who were working closely with the district hospitals for MSS implementation. In the workshop, each of the standards were reviewed and their practical experiences were shared and documented. The tool was assessed for user-friendliness and inputs were incorporated related to directions of use of the tool was added in places where there were checklists and annexes followed by the standards. Feedback were incorporated by TC to develop draft fourth of the MSS which was presented to TWG. This draft was then used for field testing.

Field Testing of MSS

For field testing, the working team was composed of TWG members and coordinated by TC. Field testing was done in Western Regional Hospital, Pokhara and Syangja District Hospital. The hospital staffs of both the hospitals were given brief presentation by TWG member and further facilitated with help of Hospital Director at Western Regional Hospital and Medical Superintendent at Syangja District Hospital respectively. The department/unit heads were consulted and the tool was thoroughly read by them and marked as agreeable to

6

them for assessing the readiness and availability of any services they are giving and asked about its practicable aspects. After incorporation of feedback, final draft were shared by TC with TWG and further shared with sections and department chiefs of MoHP and a consensus development workshop was planned.

Consensus Development Workshop

For consensus development workshop, the working team was composed of TWG members, TC and coordinated by Quality Assurance and Regulation Division (QARD). There were around 35 participants representing the different sections, Department of Health Service, Department of Drug Administration, Department of Ayurveda, and divisions of MoHP, representatives from province health directorate and representatives of partner organization. Consensus was developed in most of the content of the MSS and its implementation guideline was recommended to be in line with the federal context. Feedback received was focused on the practical aspect of the MSS and it was put forward as paving the road towards quality of care. After incorporation of feedback, final tools were shared by TC with TWG and further shared to Health Secretary of MoHP for further approval.

After approval from MoHP, the implementation of the MSS will be guided by "Minimum Service Standards Implementation Guideline 2075”.

How to use this Checklist?The MSS for hospitals is a self- assessment tool. Each standard has set of dimensions with one or more verification criteria which is assessed. The checklist enables hospitals to measure the existing situation in through scoring and helps to identify the gap areas to be addressed through the development of the actions plans. This is a cyclical process and its details are explained in the implementation guideline and users’ guide for further understanding of assessment, process of action plan development and follow up of improvement from baseline. The key steps are as follows:

Group discussion

• Conduct a group discussion in your hospital to see if the hospital really meets the given standards under each section.

Filling the checklist

• Read each section carefully and if your hospital meets the given standards, please score from 0 to 3 in the column of the score based on the maximum score for that standard

• For areas where there is indication of checking annex, please calculate the percentage and follow the scoring chart for scoring from 0 to 3

• For areas where there is indication of checking the checklist, please use both the standard and checklist for getting the clear picture of that standard

• Please use individual copies for each department/unit wherever applicable so that there is least biasness in the assessment

• Complete this process for all the standards

Scoring the checklist

• In each sub-section, add the total score and convert it into percentage.• Calculate the average of the percentages obtained in its sub-section to obtain the score of a section• Do this to all three sections to obtain the scores of each section and then take the weightage for

calculating the overall MSS score of the hospital

Weightage of the sections and Overall MSS Score

After assessment of all the sections of the standards, for overall scoring, each section is then weighed. The section of the governance and management (Section I) is weighed in 20%, that of clinical service management (Section II) is weighed in 60% and that of hospital support service management (Section III) is weighed in 20%. For example:

If Section I has the overall score of 80%, Section II has 60% and Section III has 80%; the overall score of the hospital for MSS assessment is calculated as:

Overall MSS Score = (0.2xSectionI + 0.6X Section II + 0.2x Section III)%

Overall MSS Score = (0.2x80%+ 0.6x60%+0.2x 80%)

Overall MSS Score= 68%

Interpretation of the MSS scores

The overall idea of the MSS score is that it is the minimally required optimal readiness of the hospitals to provide the available services. And moving towards the obtaining 100% in all individual sub-sections and overall MSS score is the requirement to thrive a step ahead towards quality service provision. The scores for any sub-sections being less than fifty (<50) is taken as very poor and alarming and needs to be addressed first. The scores from fifty to less than seventy (50 to<70) are taken as the state of improving status that needs specific targeted areas support. The scores from seventy to less than eighty five (70 to <85) indicate acceptance level that requires careful specific interventions. And from eighty five percentages onwards is optimal level of the readiness of the hospitals to provide the available services that requires sustained efforts to maintain the level and move towards 100%.

Overall MSS Score and Color Coding

Being based on the overall MSS score (%) obtained, the color coding of the health facilities will be done as follows:

MSS overall score (%) Color Code

Less than 50 White

50-70 Yellow

70-85 Blue

85-100 Green

In the above example the overall MSS score is 68%, thus health post will be categorized in yellow color zone. It will be provided with the yellow flag as its color code for MSS score.
